TEAM SONIC RACING

VARIOUS, 2019

Sumo Digital stripped things back to basics for its third racing game with Sonic, ditching the planes, boats and wider Sega cast. In their place they added new team mechanics that allow allied racers to share items and give each other boosts to achieve collective victory. It’s a very enjoyable game and perhaps the only kart racer in which co-operating is more fun than competing, especially in local multiplayer, but it’s best enjoyed by players who missed Sonic’s previous racers, as quite a few tracks are reused.
